Italy has a really wider base of fans and 60 millions of citizen, not even comparable with the country you are saying

I don't even think the wider base of fans is true, but even if it is, it's still the Italian promoters job to get them out there, so it's really pretty simple. Also if you look at countries like Poland, Ukraine etc they have a lot of fans, and a lot of people and they don't get shows either. It's a question of your local promoters booking the band. Like I said: little less siesta little more Offspring show booking

They played in 2011 and 2012, so we know it's not a country they "avoid". And it's always laughable how fans blame the band. Do you really think they wouldn't play in every country? it comes down to promoters, this is festival tour as you can see, the only festival in italy this year is rock in idrho, you should write a petition and mails to their promoters not to the band.

I agree, i don't think they don't want to play in Italy.

But i think Rock in Rome and Sound City Milan (both in June) are very good events for The Offspring (rock in idro was good too, but headliners here are Ska-P and Pogues, so there's no space for our guys).
